The ad I posted to our community message board:
I've been on a journey of learning and love with a family of dairy goats, and I wish to carry it forward into the next chapter of my life. I’m not sure exactly what this will look like. What I do know is two of the kids born this spring especially have my heart, and I am looking for a way to remain in relationship with them. We’re in Paonia, Colorado, and ideally we’d stay as close as possible to here. Just to be clear, I am NOT currently interested in romantic relationship. I don’t have land. I do have a love and interest in animal-care, gardening, “sustainable living” models, and what I like to call “Village Life”. I’m looking to step forward more fully into the life I envision, connected with community and the land. Maybe you have wanted goats around but don’t want to do it alone. Maybe you have other animals and would like to set up a chore share so you can have some regular days off. Maybe you know you want a couple of goats and wouldn’t mind if I visit them and possibly help care for them. I am open to talking over ideas, mainly hoping for a place that is set up for goats (or easily done) with plenty of well-fenced pasture for them and reasonable shelter/protection from predators. (I’m particularly interested in expanding my learning about livestock guardians, like dogs.) My idea of Village Life is an evolving conversation. Some of my influences are Martín Prechtel, Sobonfu Somé, Rudolph Steiner, Sacred Fire Community, Plant Spirit Medicine, The Continuum Concept, and the Nourishing Traditions cookbook. I’m a former Waldorf teacher, Red Tent facilitator, and collaborative experiential artist. Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested. Thanks!
